Picture Book of the Month


Green by Laura Vaccaro Seeger
Each two page spread is illustrated with a different shade of green, lime green, slow green, glow green, juxtaposed in a way to make a rhyme. The pictures are richly painted with deep textures, designed to hold the attention of even the youngest reader. In addition, each page has a small cutout, cleverly showing a color from the next or previous page. Thoughtful and evocative. This one goes on the grandson’s shelf.
